Revell as our third striker might be ok for a little while but not sure he would fit in with our style of play.
Cox - glad to see the back of the petulant midget.

I trust in Gus so no to both. It's easy to look good in a poor team anyway.

Cox has had years to make himself vital to our team, and he couldn't do it, even when we were spectacularly crap. He needs to be a big fish, figuratively speaking, in a small pond, which is why Orient is perfect for him. He simply wouldn't get in our team at the moment, even yesterday. Lua Lua is ten times the player and so is Elliott Bennett.

Revell is a trier, but ultimately not good enough to get a team out of League One, so I wouldn't have him either. Perhaps the occasional run out from the bench if we were losing and a bit desperate.

No, but I thought they were capable enough to do a job elsewhere (especially Coxy, who was just stale-as down here). It's good to hear they're both doing well. :thumbsup:

No, but they're good lads so all this quite aggressive anti-cox and anti-revell stance is not really fair...

The only one that's not our player is Dave Lua Lua.

The rest are ours, all ours :clap:
 


Cox seemed to be getting worse season by season and I know this will be a bit controversial, but I fail to see the difference between Barnes and Revell. They both work hard, both have a weak first touch and both, more so Barnes, miss 10 chances before they score one. I would also validly argue that Revell wins more in the air.

However it's all about who works best with Murray and that would be Barnes, just. That is where the weakness lies in the squad, we don't have a striker that can complement Murray. Forster did it fantastically, Healy would have been unbelievable alongside him.

I agree but note that Revell has scored 7 in the league and one each in the cup games so has scored more than Murray or Barnes so far.

Revell has no pace and is never going to get any better.

Barnes is young and has enough potential to improve significantly. He also has a better touch than Revell, who will never be anything more than a not-terribly-prolific striker for struggling third division and fourth division teams.

Wouldn't want either to be honest.

Cox had moments when he very promising but too often went missing. I think a move was best for both him and the Albion.

Revell is a resonable league one player but like Edna said he's not the sort of player to push you on out of this league.

Having said that I do feel we lack a little fire power up front but Revell wouldn't improve that in my opinion.
